Buoy's - Review - Manasquan - Jersey Shore - The Infatuation

"Buoy’s has evolved from a pop-up experiment into one of the Jersey Shore’s most versatile restaurants. By day, sandwiches like their club sub or crispy fried chicken on soft brioche are a perfect antidote to wear off the late night that you spent at nearby legendary bars Leggets or The Osprey. And now, Buoy’s-By-Night offers a really well executed five-course pop-up style dinner, in a casual but cute BYOB outdoor space. The weekly menu consists of appetizers like a shareable mix of crudos and tartare (we recently had a memorable octopus with white soy under fennel and mustard greens), a pasta (we loved the burrata topped cappelletti in an nduja-tomato sauce), a protein-based entree for each guest, and dessert. $95 per person can feel a bit steep given the casual atmosphere, but we think Buoy’s is offering a really unique and high-quality experience where it’s least expected." - Michael Sinatra
